At the 49th minute Chelsea won a throw-in deep in Atalanta's half after Soppy cleared a cross out for a throw. Chilwell picked up the ball and took it quickly to Pulisic who was showing for it ten yards away, and the American winger tried to turn Soppy immediately with his first touch but the wingback stayed tight on him without diving in. The ball went back to Gallagher who had dropped to offer support, and he played it square to Barkley in the center.
Barkley took one touch to control while scanning forward, saw space behind Atalanta's back three, and tried a long ball over the top toward Werner who was making a run across Moretti's shoulder. The pass had the right idea but Moretti read it perfectly from his position at center-back, stepping across Werner's line while timing his jump, and he headed it clear with power that sent the ball forty yards forward.
